Remember
when George Bush accused Ronald Reagan of “Voodoo Economics?”
Well I am more worried about “Voodoo Christianity.”

Voodoo--Based
on unrealistic or delusive assumptions: Deceptive or delusive nonsense.

For
the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth
will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked
be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth,
and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

Even
him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs
and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in
them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that
they might be saved.

And
for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should
believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not
the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

Voodoo
in its most simple of terms is a religion based on superstition and
“black magic.” The term “black” insinuates a
connection to the dark side. It is a religious system of ‘superstitious
works that count on forces from the “dark side” perpetuating
good.

Even
if it appeared to be “good”, any voodoo action that resulted
in “good” would be a counterfeit. Darkness is never able
to present light…no matter how “good” the result may
be. Remember, we are told that Satan
often appears as an angel of light.

Here
are a few examples of voodoo beliefs:

•
A lock of a girl's hair brings good luck.• If you lay a broom across the doorway at night,
a witch can't come in and hurt you.• Having a woman visit you the first thing on
Monday mornings is bad luck for the rest of the week.• Don't borrow or lend salt because that is bad
luck.• If you sweep trash out of the house after dark
you will sweep away your luck.• Don't shake a tablecloth outside after dark
or someone in your family will die.

Superstition
is “A fearful or abject state of mind resulting from ignorance.
Idolatry.

I
would like to lay before you today the premise that superstition and
idolatry has crept into our churches today. Much of what Christians
believe today is “based on unrealistic or delusive assumptions”
and is evidenced by “deceptive and delusive nonsense.”

In
short, Voodoo Christianity is running rampant in our churches.

Jesus
is the light. The Bible is His Word. If you hold to a belief system
that is contrary to the principles that one finds in the Bible then
your belief system is faulty. Any belief that runs counter to scripture
comes from the dark side. There is no “grey” area with truth.

But
that is the poison that our culture has tried to feed us. Moral relativism,
tolerance, diversity, and “acceptance” of sin are all examples
of “spells” that have been cast over America from the dark
side. “The Church” used to be the antidote to this “voodoo”
belief system, but in the last generation we have seen the beliefs become
“doctrine” in our churches.

Is
your church a purveyor of Christian Voodoo? Have many of the things
you believe come straight from the darkside? Does much of what your
teach fall in line with the “doctrines of demons?”

“Now
the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall
depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines
of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared
with a hot iron;”

A
seared conscience refers to one who is no longer moved by a sense of
right and wrong. Is that you? Has your conscience been seared by “Voodoo
Christianity?”

If
you believe that God is not upset by the murder of unborn babies and
that it is possible for you to be “pro-choice” and a Christian,
then you are a practitioner of Voodoo Christianity.

Although
God is completely good and wants the best for all of His children He
did not suffer and die on the cross to enhance your life. If you believe
that Jesus died to give you a bigger house, improved finances, and a
name-it-claim-it attitude towards this life then you are a practitioner
of Voodoo Christianity.

God
is Holy and tells us to strive to “Be ye Holy as I am Holy.”
They teachings in our churches that tell us that sin is not an affront
to the Lord, that you can continue to go on sinning without impunity,
that you can fornicate at will, that you can live with someone with
whom you are not married is nothing more than Voodoo Christianity.

God
is just and Christians are his enforcers of justice in the earth. To
think that Jesus died on a cross to allow His Name to be besmirched
in this land; To permit His Name to be removed from the minds of America’s
school children; To believe that morality can be taught apart from the
Holy Scriptures as the foundation of all moral law is nothing short
of Voodoo Christianity.

All
of us were made from dirt and to the dirt shall our bodies return. In
creating man Yahweh used red dirt, brown dirt, yellow dirt, and white-man
dirt. If you believe that the color of the dirt from which you were
formed is the determining aspect in all of our worldly affairs then
you are under a spell. To go to a” black church”, or a “white
church,” or an “Hispanic church” is nothing short
of voodoo identity. There are only two races of people…those racing
for heaven and those racing for hell. To focus on skin color is Voodoo
Christianity.

If
you go to a church that believes that Christians are to have no say
in the political affairs of this nation is to drink a witch’s
brew. Jesus told us we were the “salt of the earth” which
insinuates penetrating every area of American life. To leave the “political
world” to the Devil’s kids is nothing short of Voodoo Christianity.

Barack
Obama is the most dishonest man to ever sit in the White House. His
policies are socialist and are designed to undermine the American way
of life. He believes in homosexual marriage, post-birth abortion, the
destruction of individual God-granted rights, and that the birth of
a child is “punishment” in certain situations. If you are
a Christian and voted for him you are a believer in Voodoo Christianity.

If
you are trusting in the Republican Party to cure all of America’s
ills; If you think the Republican Party wants to end abortion; If you
think they are for smaller government and less spending; If you believe
they are determined to over-turn Obama Care; And if you believe that
they are for the protection of individual God-given rights then you
are practicing Voodoo Christianity.

The
book of Genesis is very clear. God created the heavens and the earth
in six days. God created man in His own image. Man did not evolve from
pond scum and our distant grandpa was not a chimpanzee. If you believe
that what Charles Darwin wrote is truer than what the Bible teaches,
then you are engaged in Voodoo Christianity.

Public
schools have been seized by atheistic-humanists. Although the teachers
may claim adherence to Jesus and the Bible, the doctrine being espoused
in all of the government schools in this nation come straight out of
the Devil’s rulebook. In fact, “Christian” teachers
are playing on the Devil’s team by teaching these deadly doctrines
to innocent children. If you are part of teaching to children things
that are not true then you are practicing Voodoo Christianity.

Although
Jesus did speak the words “judge not” in Mathew 7 that does
not mean that Christians are supposed to accept as truth and teach to
our children that “Christians are not supposed to judge.”
On the Devil’s list of commandments to be taught to our children
that is number 1. If you believe the malarkey that judging the behavior
of others is “unchristian” then you are practicing Voodoo
Christianity.

Despite
what Rick Warren, President Bush, and Barack Obama may say Christians
and Muslims do not serve the same God. The God of the Bible is not the
god of the Quran, and the god of the Talmud is not the God of the Bible.
If you think they are the same then you are under a spell and are practicing
Voodoo Christianity.

Jesus
uttered the most intolerant message in the history of the world when
He
declared “I am the way, the Truth, and the Life,
no one comes to the father except by me.” To believe
that there are many paths to God is nothing short of Voodoo Christianity.

If
you are going to call yourself a Christian then believe what the Bible
teaches, do what the Bible says, and follow the roadmap that it lays
out for us. To do anything else makes you a Voodoo Christian and a follower
of the dark side.
